KUWAIT CITY, Feb 9: During the match between Kuwait Club and Bahrain’s Al-Ahli the day before yesterday, concluding the preliminary round of the 4th West Asia Volleyball Championship at Sheikh Saad Al-Abdullah Sports Complex, a heartwarming moment captured attention.

A powerful spike sent the ball flying into the stands, landing in the hands of one of the youngest Kuwait Club fans. Showing great sportsmanship, the boy immediately returned the ball to the court, a moment highlighted by Kuwait TV cameras.

After the match, Dr. Jaber Al-Marri, chairman of the Kuwait Volleyball Federation, invited the young fan forward and honored him by presenting an official ball from Kuwait’s national team. The gift served as a memento of his support, fair play, and dedication to cheering for his team.
